Sunan Ibn Majah 3173 (Book 27, Hadith 12) #32527
Eating Food Blessed with the Name of Allah

SUMMARY: The hadith is about not eating food that has not been blessed with the name of Allah.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas: "And certainly, the Shayatin (devils) do inspire their friends (from mankind)". 6:121 He said: "They used to say: 'Whatever the Name of Allah has been mentioned over, do not eat it, and whatever the Name of Allah has not been mentioned over, eat it.’ Then Allah said: "Eat not of that over which Allah’s Name has not been pronounced.’" 6:121
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، ‏{إِنَّ الشَّيَاطِينَ لَيُوحُونَ إِلَى أَوْلِيَائِهِمْ}‏ قَالَ كَانُوا يَقُولُونَ مَا ذُكِرَ عَلَيْهِ اسْمُ اللَّهِ فَلاَ تَأْكُلُوا وَمَا لَمْ يُذْكَرِ اسْمُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ فَكُلُوهُ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ‏{وَلاَ تَأْكُلُوا مِمَّا لَمْ يُذْكَرِ اسْمُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ}‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about eating food that has been blessed with the name of Allah. It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas, who said that people used to say that whatever food was mentioned by the name of Allah should not be eaten, and whatever was not mentioned by His name could be eaten. Then, God revealed this verse in the Quran which states "Eat not of that over which Allah's Name has not been pronounced." This means we should only eat food which has been blessed with the name of God and refrain from eating anything else. We should remember to thank God for all our blessings and show gratitude for His mercy upon us.
